How to specify the queue driver for a specific job in Laravel?

To specify the queue driver for a specific job in Laravel, you can use the onConnection and onQueue methods provided by the Dispatchable trait, which is included by default in all jobs.

Here are the steps to specify the queue driver for a specific job:

  1. Open the job class file where you want to specify the queue driver.

  2. Import the Illuminate\Bus\Queueable trait at the top of the file:

use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
  1. Use the Queueable trait in your class:
class ExampleJob implements ShouldQueue { use Dispatchable, InteractsWithQueue, Queueable, SerializesModels;
  1. Add the onConnection and onQueue methods to the handle method of your job class:
public function handle() { // Code logic of the job // Set the desired queue connection and queue name $this->onConnection('redis')->onQueue('high'); }

In the example above, the onConnection method is used to set the desired queue driver (in this case, redis). The onQueue method is used to specify the desired queue name (in this case, high).

By default, Laravel uses the queue connection and queue name defined in your config/queue.php file. However, by using the onConnection and onQueue methods within the job, you can override these default settings for that specific job.
